Azura Stevens returned from arm surgery and Dearica Hamby led all scorers, but the ailing Sparks lost at home to the Minnesota Lynx Tuesday night.
Curt Miller urged his team to play with an all-or-nothing sentiment before the Sparks closed their four-game homestand Tuesday. “We have to leave it all out there,” he said pregame. “There's nothing we should be saving in the tank tonight. We should lay it all on the line.” But Miller's plea for passion and intensity on the floor didn’t translate to a win. Minnesota never trailed despite playing without potential MVP candidate Napheesa Collier for the second consecutive game.
Dearica Hamby led all scorers with 18 points and reached the 3,000-point career milestone during the contest, but Minnesota still claimed a victory over the Sparks for the third time this season. Miller’s losing streak against the Lynx extended to 0-7 since joining the Sparks in 2023.
